Hi, I'm stephen, I'm a certified welder, working on my machinists cert, and working part time at a hardware store. Mixing in all of that with my hobbies of blacksmithing and knifemaking, only makes for more fun. Visit my blog - eagleeyeforge.blogspot.com - or my website - Eagleeyeforge.com - and check out some more of my projects. Or stop by on Facebook and give me a holler - Facebook.com/eagleeyeforge.

Well, it's hard to say without seeing it, but I'd say to first start with balling up a rag, and dipping the end in boiling hot water, and rubbing the waxed leather vigorously with it. Hopefully this will melt the wax on the surface and help shine it up. Let me know if this works, or helps at all.
